**Someone will likely trade up into the #31 spot for someone they covet and that is exactly what the Patriots will be looking to do, however I do think there is an off chance Smith sneaks into the back end of the first round**_________________

Slides out of the first round. Not a whole lot of teams that really need that interior help. I originally had him to the Patriots, but New England loves to draft from UConn and Reyes is a similar prospect. You are going to be able to get some really nice interior DL guys (Worthy and Still) at the top of the 2nd round. That or teams will trade into the mid-late 20's to pick them up._________________

1 - It is not always about need, value is a huge part of drafting, and at that spot Mark Barron provides very good value. Especially for a team that has few pressing needs, especially after they have addressed WR so convincingly so far in Free Agency.

2 - I think ultimately come April this pick will either be traded away as a means to get further down the draft and maybe pick up a future 1st or it will be used to propel themselves higher in the draft to find a guy who they beleive can push them over the top.

3 - Essentially it is a luxury pick, the 49ers have no real pressing needs, and the position that is probably the one that could be upgraded the most outside of RG is the safety position, and Barron provides the value to make the selection worthwhile. Nobody has a clue which Donte Whitner will show up in 2012._________________

I would not call it a huge reach, with his measurables there will be plenty of teams willing to bring him into their system and let him go.

I doubt they go back to back 1st round receivers so that essentially rules out Wright and Hill and how much sense does it really make to play Mike Adams at Right Tackle.

Bottom line, the Browns are currently starting Chris Gocong and Scott Fujita at OLB, they are in desperate need of an upgrade at the position and Brown along with being fair value for the spot is an immediate upgrade at LB for the Browns._________________

Honestly i forgot you had us taking Blackmon at 4.

While Brown does have good measurables, he also has poor instincts, is undisciplined, has been labeled soft, and its also been reported he has not done well in interviews. I would not be surprised at all to see him fall to the 3rd round.

I just don't see the Eagles taking Keuchley.
I would expect them to sign a free agent LB and develop a LB taken later in the draft.

The LB corps is so young that even the top rated LB in this draft is unlikely to make a difference.
It is awfully hard for a rookie to come in and bring together a unit.
It has happened before in the NFL, but I don't see Keuchley as THAT good.
